\fBPAPIf_hl_region_begin\fP reads hardware events and stores them internally at the beginning of an instrumented code region\&. If not specified via environment variable PAPI_EVENTS, default events are used\&. The first call sets all counters implicitly to zero and starts counting\&. Note that if PAPI_EVENTS is not set or cannot be interpreted, default hardware events are recorded\&.
